FORMER CENTER MIDDLE SCHOOL teacher and athletic coach, Jay Dana, 60, of Ft. Myers, Fla., was jailed last week in Mahoning County over allegations he violated the terms of his probation imposed in 2015 when he was convicted sexual battery charges in the courtroom of Judge Maureen Sweeney. Dana, who faced upwards of 11 years in jail if convicted, was given a 75-day jail sentence. Upon completion of the sentence, he moved to Florida, where it is claimed he violated the terms of his probation when he left his residence without his monitoring device. The Boardman News was told that Dana had been warned several times not to leave his home without the device. A hearing on the matter has been set for 9:00 a.m. on Aug. 11. Dana, who is represented by Atty. J. Gerald Ingram, Esq. will remain in jail until that time. His original charges involved allegations of date rape brought forward by three woman. Unrelated to those charges, on Christmas Day, 2015, Dana’s second wife, Michelle, was found dead in their Columbiana, Oh. home. Dana told the Columbiana County Sheriff’s Department the two had been playing “a drinking game.”
